Owl we get on, on Saturday?

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

The rest of us, as certain pedantic away fans like to remind us, will be in Horwich.

Ludlow. It's teeming with them.

We can't score.
Or defend.
And our manager is a know-nowt chancer.

But our luck has to change at some point....1-0 to the Whites.

Well, I have been offered Freebie tickets today by a good friend of mine, off this forum. But I have turned the offer down. I know I have planned a day out, but could have easily cancelled if I had wanted, to go to the match.

At this moment in time, I don't have the heart or inclination to go....it's sad really, I would have bitten somebody's hands off to get those tickets not long ago :(

Leave him alone. Those shelves won't put themselves up. I'd have taken them to the match with a brush and pot of varnish and done 'em up in quiet moments. But PC World FFS. My god they got 'Pull' on the doors you push!
On the subject of soccer 3-3 draw or slight edge by the trotters, could be 3-2.
Don't try to be a great man. Just be a man and let history make up its own mind.

I think we'll take an early 2 goal lead and then let them back in the game to make it 2-2. I do think that today is the day the apathy dies, if we have a poor start then the crowd will turn on Dougie, given everything thats gone on throughout the international break, I think a loss today will be the last straw for most people. Should make for an interesting afternoon :conf:

I really hate it when the crowd turns on a manager or player in the course of a game.

Too be fair, Ive never booed the team or manager in my life, ive shouted a few times for the manager to sort it out but thats as far as I go, but WtW, I think todays the day the booers are going to give it their all if things dont go well at the start. I agree about not doing it mid game but thats life.

I was right with you until you said we were going to score 3.

Cue song...

As for the rest, I'm with WtW and WW - can't bear booing during the game (don't even do it at the end, personally) but I really fear the atmosphere will turn very ugly if Wednesday - who have made a decent start - turn us over...
